Long Trail (LT) Planning Guide

February 10, 2015 by Beardoh

Long Trail Planning Guide

We built the Long Trail Planning Guide after Beardoh hiked the LT in 2013.  The goal with the planning guide was to take online resources a step further than what we had been finding while planning for the hike.  For many folks, the Long Trail is their first long distance hike. We figured that having a site that was dedicated specifically to the trail would be helpful for hikers out on their first thru-hike and veterans alike.

The Long Trail Planning Guide has:

  • Customized maps to help visualize Resupply Plans
  • Mail Drop Information
  • Gear List Recommendations & Downloadable Spreadsheets
  • Beardoh!’s journal with photos
  • Info on water purification, lodging, expenses, side trips, conditioning, section hike suggestions, and much more
